What is supposed to be a good rating in chess.com? If the rating is say 1900, can any equivalent ELO ratings can be assigned?

Hi Masterclass,

It is difficult to decide what a "good rating" is. Each to their own.

The ratings initially start at 1200 and fluctuate for a while, then flatten out to give an accurate rating. 

Here is some further info on how the ratings and scores work:
